AIIMS2018ChemistryThermodynamics (C)
Assertion : Addition of Q and w gives U . Reason : Addition of two path functions cannot give state function.
Options
- AIf both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
- BIf both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
- CIf assertion is true but reason is false.
- DIf both assertion and reason are false.
Correct answer
C. If assertion is true but reason is false.
Step-by-step solution
U=Q+w Internal energy is a state function but Q and w are path functions.
